1 18, 2 15s, or 3 15s

im totally narrowed down to decisions now on subs. i have trunk space but im not going for a wall. im going for loud and and decent quality. althought everyone perception of quality is different other than sub specs. anyways here are my choices

3 alumQ 15s

2 death penalties 15s

1 XXX 18

each will wire to 1ohm. my main choices would be the latter 2. i only added the abahns b/c 3 can wire to one ohm and who in the hell wouldnt want another 15 inches of air piston? now, frankly speaking, what are you guys ideas?

my guesses would be the alumqs would be loudest but harder to space out, the 2 dp 15s can be loud, especially with the added box room w/o a 3rd 15, the 18 could have a crapload of room but then again it is one sub.

what do u guys think? the more i think about it the more i wanna go with the DP 15s, i hear GREAT things from them, they are cheaper and louder than the XXXs, and are avaiable in dual 4ohm. ill be running *hopefully* an orion 2500d to w/e subs i get

also you would have major wow factor when you tell people there IA DP's.

They'd be like "huggh ,DP, IA, never heard of em,those are sweet man."

My vote is DP as well, or you could just wait for IA to make 18 DP's!! That would be sick but you may be waiting a while...lol. DP's all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

18's play the full sub-bass spectrum just fine. If you want midbass, put midbass speakers in, not a sub. Or, do both. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
